PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD537 is available in three performance/temperature
The AD537 is a monolithic V-F converter consisting of an input
amplifier, a precision oscillator system, an accurate internal ref-
erence generator and a high current output stage. Only a single
external RC network is required to set up any full-scale (F.S.)
frequency up to 100 kHz and any F.S. input voltage up to
30 V. Linearity error is as low as 0.05% for 10 kHz F.S., and
operation is guaranteed over an 80 dB dynamic range. The over-
all temperature coefficient (excluding the effects of external
components) is typically 30 ppm/°C. The AD537 operates
from a single supply of 5 V to 36 V and consumes only 1.2 mA
quiescent current.
grades; the J and K grades are specified for operation over the
0°C to +70°C range while the AD537S is specified for operation
over the extended temperature range, –55°C to +125°C.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. The AD537 is a complete V-F converter requiring only an
external RC timing network to set the desired full-scale fre-
quency and a selectable pull-up resistor for the open collec-
tor output stage. Any full-scale input voltage range from
100 mV to 10 volts (or greater, depending on +VS) can be
accommodated by proper selection of timing resistor. The
full-scale frequency is then set by the timing capacitor from
the simple relationship, f = V/10RC.
A temperature-proportional output, scaled to 1.00 mV/K,
enables the circuit to be used as a reliable temperature-to-
frequency converter; in combination with the fixed reference
output of 1.00 V, offset scales such as 0°C or 0°F can be generated.
2. The power supply requirements are minimal, only 1.2 mA
quiescent current is drawn from a single positive supply from
4.5 volts to 36 volts. In this mode, positive inputs can vary
from 0 volts (ground) to (+VS – 4) volts. Negative inputs can
easily be connected for below ground operation.
The low drift (1 µV/°C typ) input amplifier allows operation
directly from small signals (e.g., thermocouples or strain gages)
while offering a high (250 MΩ) input resistance. Unlike most
V–F converters, the AD537 provides a square-wave output, and
can drive up to 12 TTL loads, LEDs, very long cables, etc.
3. F-V converters with excellent characteristic are also easy to
build by connecting the AD537 in a phase-locked loop. Ap-
plication particulars are shown in Figure 6.
The excellent temperature characteristics and long-term stability
of the AD537 are guaranteed by the primary bandgap reference
generator and the low T.C. silicon chromium thin film resistors
used throughout.
4. The versatile open-collector NPN output stage can sink up
to 20 mA with a saturation voltage less than 0.4 volts. The
Logic Common terminal can be connected to any level be-
tween ground (or –VS) and 4 volts below +VS. This allows
easy direct interface to any logic family with either positive or
negative logic levels.
The device is available in either a 14-lead ceramic DIP or a 10-lead
metal can; both are hermetically sealed packages.
5. The AD537 is available in versions compliant with MIL-
STD-883. Refer to the Analog Devices Military Product
Databook or current AD537/883B data sheet for detailed
specifications.
